Recycled jacket, this was about a size sixteen with cream colored bias binding and not in good condition , I took it apart and cut it smaller and sewn it back together, put new denim bias and covered buttons on with my name embroidered on the back. What do u think?

Looks great. Thank you for sharing. Happy Sewing!!!

You did great on this piece.

Fabulous--I like doing this sort of recycling. My sister just gave me some cut off denim legs from jeans. She knows I take scraps. I see beauty in scraps.

Yes, I love it.

It's gorgeous!! You sure have a talent for remaking and up-cycling preloved clothes. This is wonderful for fall weather too. Very well done.

Thanks, not hard to do, just took some time the denim I used for bias was a very light weight type.
